Joyce Jackson purchases works of art for an art gallery .
Two years ago she bought a painting for $20.000, and last year she bought one for $35,000 .
If paintings appreciate 14% per year, how much are two paintings worth now?
---------------
1st painting value after 2 years (20,000)(1.14)^2 = $25,992
---
2nd painting value after 1 year (35,000)*1.14 = $39,900
